Abstract
A model has been developed no describe the mechanism for microwave optical double resonance. This semiclassical model utilizes a steady-state kinetic analysis and two sets of two-level transition probabilities; one for the microwave radiation field and one for the laser optical field. The model predicts a relative double resonance signal intensity of up to 33\%, and suggests an origin for the large 5 MHz linewidths previously observed in the ground state microwave optical double resonance experiments on BaO. A similar approach should be applicable to some other forms of double resonance spectroscopy in which collisions and saturation effects must be considered.
